ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating A Menu Bar That Is A Movieclip And Inside The Movieclip Consists Of The Buttons?
Oct 21, 2005
I'm creating a menu bar that is a movieclip and inside the movieclip consists of the buttons.Now the menu bar is twice as WIDE as what is visible on the stage.The only part you can see is the text 'menu' on a bar.Then when the mouse hits the bar, it flies across the screen to the otherside of the bar where the menu buttons are.Now the menu bar does its animation over 20 frames - the last frame being the frame where the menu buttons are now visible.
On the last frame i have the 'stop;' code
On the first frame I have this code:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
[code]....

I am looking at creating a menu with three movieclip buttons on a main menu. I want to keep these buttons on the top of the screen at all times. I am opening different swf's and I want to make sure that the buttons are still showing. I know there is something with changing or swapping the depth of the movie clip when it loads the new swf's in, but I have not found anything that is seeming to work.

I am currently creating animated buttons that have a movie clip inside them (including tweens). I created a button and copied this six times. I would like to change the colour of each individual button, but when I do this it changes the colours of all the buttons. How can I do this so it changes the individual the colour of a single button.

I'm creating a drop down menu and when I addEventListeners to check the clicks on the invisible buttons on frame 19 of the "menu" movieclip, it gives me an error. T really hate doing rollover with actionscripts. The download link for the fla can be found in below. Sorry for posting an external download link as the file is 7mb+! [URL]

I need to create a variable inside a MoveClip. The easiest way to do this is to click on a movieclip in the editor and just enter the actionscript on a frame, but because i'm doing this with dynamically created movieclips i need to do it with actionscript.
PS: I'm doing it for sorting purposes in a slideshow.

I am making a bar of 4 different movie clip buttons in a row. Like "- - - -" and what happens is when you hover over them they expand and show content of what they are labeled. "info" hover over shows content. But the problem is, whenever let say hover over Contact, The "Info" title on the bar next to it will show. I'm unaware of how to make it so the "Content BOX" is above the rest of the hover links. All the hover links are all into one layer, in a movie clip. (So I can toggle the whole button bar from left to right.)

My menu has 3 movieclip buttons, with text. I broke apart the text to change the color onMouseOver. Problem is the button only works when the mouse is pointed over the actual text, so it doesn't work properly, because the text is obviously very small. I can't put a "field" behind it, because it will become part of the MC, and thus will change color. Here's the example: [URL]

I have a menu movieclip that pops out from the right hand side on rollover. On this menu there are four buttons for menu navigation options. However these buttons are not working properly. I feel that the menu movieclip is taking precedence over the buttons because the whole menu is than clickable, while the buttons show up, however are not clickable. Here's what I have so far:

So, in my base flash file I have movieclips playing inside of a container.
They are cued from external .swf files.
When one is pushed another checks to see if that movie is at its "midframe" and then plays the remainder of that movie before playing the movie that was pushed.
ALL OF THIS, works fine. The problems is that I have a button inside of these movieclips that I need to play the remainder of the movie to then return to the main menu.
This is the code on the buttons which cycle through the movieclips:
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "illustration";
container.loadMovie(illustration);
[Code].....
If I wanted the movie to only return to to the main menu I could use this code, but it's flawed for two reasons:
on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
a. This doesn't play the rest of the movie before returning to the main menu.
b. Once it returns you to the main menu, none of the other movies will play again.

On my stage I have two buttons that open a movieclip that has more buttons in it.
If button 1 was used to open the movieclip, then the internal buttons each load up text. If button 2 was used, the buttons load up images.
Problem is, if I click on button 1, (to go back to loading text) the last image remains, as I'm not sure how to code removeChild to act if the parent button has been pressed.
Currently, I successfully use removeChild to remove each image as image buttons are clicked within the movieclip. But I'm not sure how to remove the last one?

I'm making a flash CS4 presentation and I just made a navbar movieclip (grey rectangle) and put 6 buttons on each layer inside of it. I put this movieclip (navbar) on the main movie timeline in a layer. I keep getting this error (1120 access of undefined property) and the buttons simply don't respond to the main timeline. It used to work fine when the buttons were on the main timeline. Should I make a parent child reference ?
For example, this code for the pause button won't work:
pause_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, stopButtonClick);
function stopButtonClick (e:MouseEvent):void {
this.stop();
}

I have a movieclip and some sort of buttons inside of it for interaction. The Movieclip is in the _root and all other stuff inside of it. Now problem is: Whenever I attach an action to he MC like:
Code:
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.mc_stage.onPress = function() {
startDrag(_root.mc_stage,false);
}
_root.mc_stage.onRelease = function() {
stopDrag();
}}
And run the swf, I cannot interact with the buttons. I cant click them. When there is no action applied to MC on the instance or the timeline the buttons work perfect. How can I make both work ? Drag the Movieclip with mouse and also make buttons work.

Here're my 2 problems: 1-I did a menu moving in 3d following my mouse movement. But i would like it to have a limit of rotation on the left and on the right, cause i don't the user to see the back of the image (the image is rotating 360 right now, i would like it to rotate maybe like 90 or less). Here's the code i am using:
[Code]...
2-My second question is about my menu buttons. I want them to be on lower layer cause it help creating my 3d scene cause sometimes it is a part cover by my image on the top. But the buttons stop to be clickable when they are behind something (even a part behind). I want them to be clickable at all time. The strange thing is i checked out in the forum and a lot of people have the opposite problem... their buttons still work. How can i make mine clickable?

I've been using this site for a while as I'm taking flash lessons in my college and right now I am building a portfolio website and am in need of help, so I've decided to come to you for some light. My problem is in the portfolio I'm creating in AS2 I have the photo and video galleries in form of a click'n'drag movie clip that slides sideways. So far, so good. However, when I add buttons to my mc (and that includes the ones in all my video players as well), they don't work at all. I think it has something to do with the function I'm using. Is there any solution for allowing buttons to be clickable? This is the code I'm using directly in the mc:

This is my first time coding a website using ActionScript. So far everything has went very well, I designed the website in Photoshop, and imported to Flash CS5. Then I cleaned everything up, and started adding navigation to the various pages using buttons.The website is constructed in a very simple manner, there are five main pages and they are connected by buttons on a static navigation bar (the first page, home, doesn't have a corresponding button). Then there are nine sub pages, that each contain information on a character of the game, and are connected to corresponding buttons in the 'Character' layer/MovieClip. My four menu buttons (Story, The World, Characters, Extras) all navigate correctly without problems.
The problem arises because inside my Characters page (a movie clip) are nine buttons, each linking to a different page. These buttons should bring the timeline to the frame specified, but when the buttons are clicked nothing happens. I've spent hours searching for a solution to this, but with no avail, and I have a feeling the answer is prettysimple.gotoAndStop("gowang", "Scene 1");line in the Gowang character button function with:MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("gowang");

My buttons work fine in the main time line, but I need to place them in frame 1 of a mc_pages, I get an error about it saying "the statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler". And I just can't figure out how to do that to save my life. If pc's were cheap their would be a pile of them outside on the curb. I'm thinking I need to split up this action and place some on frame 1 of the main time line and keep some for for my button on frame 1 of pages, but what part? how?
My button loads a new swf in the mc placeholder.
btn01.onRelease = function () {
// let's first unload the current movie, to refresh the cache
(placeholder.unloadMovie());
// SETUP THE MAIN VIDEO PLAYER
autoPlay = "true"; //
autoLoop = "false"; //

As I was creating a cheap Flyout Menu I ended up being unable to assing a "global" variable to different buttons.I have a "main button bar" with 5 different buttons wich as you RollOver one brings up another bar with multiple buttons attach to it.
Now these "2nd level" buttons are set in a Movie Clip as this one starts invisible and I don't want people to see the hand cursor over them. I know how to make this happen to each button individually but since I have 8 "2nd level" btns I don't want my ActionScript to be 100 lines long So to put this easier to read and write, to minimize the chances of making mistake I am asking you this: Is there a way to assign a single variable to refer to these 8 different "2nd level" buttons?

I'm fairly new to actionscript and could use some help. I'm using Flash CS3, AS 1/2.I have made a musicplayer that is inside a movieclip, but when i pull the movieclip onto the stage the buttons inside the movieclip stop working.Inside the Movieclip:I have the music start on frame 1 and then gotoAndPlay at frame 3.Frame 3 has a stop();, a button that stops the music and gotoAndPlay "play".Frame 2 has a stop();, a button that plays the music and gotoAndPlay "stop".it all works fine on its own, but as soon as i stick it on the stage it stops working.Labels have been set up fine, it works when i use 'Test Scene'. I've hardcoded all the buttons to work on the timeline frames and not on the buttons.[code]

How do you get buttons to work correctly inside the Movieclip? When i click on my buttons they show what is supposed to be shown for a split second then goes to the nested frame 1. my website is: [URL] If you go to the Interest button, you'll see what i mean. the clip loads up fine but when u click on the Adobe cd it won't work correctly. The images flash on screen then disappear.
